That this House applauds the pioneering work of the charity, Unlocked Graduates, which aims to bring high-calibre graduate talent into the prison service; notes that participants in the charity's two-year programme serve as prison officers while working towards a fully-funded master's degree in Leadership and Custodial Environments; believes that the programme has enormous potential to bring new ideas, insights and energy into the rehabilitation of prisoners; and calls on the Government to continue its support for this valuable and innovative initiative.
